Stephen Elliott (born 6 January, 1984 in Dublin) is an Irish international footballer who plays as a striker for Wolverhampton Wanderers in The Championship.
Stephen Elliott (November 27 1918 - May 21 2005) was an American actor.
Elliott's first acting engagement was at the New York Neighborhood Playhouse in 1946. After serving in World War II, Elliott started a successful career on Broadway with his debut in Shakespeare's The Tempest. In 1967, he was nominated for the Tony Award for Best Featured Actor in a Play for Marat/Sade. Two years later he won the Drama Desk Award for A Whistle in the Dark. Additional Broadway credits include King Lear, The Miser, Georgy, The Crucible, and The Creation of the World and Other Business. His television credits include the role of Jane Wyman's first husband in Falcon Crest, Colombo, Texan millionaire attorney Scotty Demarest in Dallas, and Judge Harold Aldrich in Chicago Hope.
Elliott married his wife stage actress Nancy Chase in 1947 and divorced in 1960. They both had two children, Jency and Jon. He married his second wife, actress Alice Hirson whom he met on Broadway in 1964, but not married until 2004. The following year he died in Woodland Hills, California as result of congestive heart failure. Ironically, both Elliott and Hirson appeared in recurring roles on the television series Dallas.
Stephen Elliott (born August 31, 1806 in Beaufort, South Carolina, died December 21, 1866 in Savannah, Georgia) was the 37th bishop of the Episcopal Church in the United States of America (ECUSA). He was the first Bishop of Georgia and Provisional Bishop of Florida. He was also the first and only Presiding Bishop of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the Confederate States of America.
Stephen Elliott (born December 3, 1971) is an American author and activist living in San Francisco who has written and published six books. He is also the founder of the political action committee LitPAC, which holds readings by authors to raise money for progressive candidates.
Stephen Elliott grew up in Chicago, where in his teens he was made a ward of the court and placed in various state-run homes. He attended the University of Illinois and received his master's from Northwestern University. He was the Marsh McCall lecturer in Creative Writing at Stanford University.
Stephen Elliott was awarded the 2001 Stegner Fellowship from Stanford University, given to emerging writers in fiction and poetry.
Stephen Elliott went on the campaign trail and wrote a book about the 2004 U.S. presidential race, Looking Forward To It: or, How I Learned to Stop Worrying About It and Love the American Electoral Process (Picador, Oct 2004, ISBN 0312424159). His novel Happy Baby was edited by Dave Eggers and co-published by McSweeney's and MacAdam/Cage and was released in February 2004. The paperback of Happy Baby was published by Picador in January 2005. His most recent book, My Girlfriend Comes to the City and Beats Me Up (ISBN 1573442550), a collection of S&M erotica sometimes referred to as a sexual memoir, was published by Cleis Press.
In April 2007 he published an essay about his experiment of not using the Internet for one month, writing "I could feel my attention span lengthening. I would think about problems until I figured them out."http://www.pw.org/mag/0705/newselliott.htm
A Drama Desk Award-winning actor ("A Whistle in the Dark" [1969] ) and a Tony Award nominee (as Monsieur Colmier, "Marat/Sade" [1967] ), he began his career as a member of New York's Neighborhood Playhouse from 1940 to 1942, where he studied with noted acting instructor Sanford Meisner before joining the US Merchant Marine during World War II. Upon his return, he made his Broadway debut in 1945 in "The Tempest". His stepson David Hirson told the Los Angeles Times in an interview that his stepfather was always proudest of his stage work. His mother died soon after his birth during the Spanish influenza pandemic of 1918, and he was raised by his father, who was a textile worker, and his stepmother. Most of his acting successes in films came after he reached the age of fifty, although he was a pioneering actor in the days of early television, notably as the third actor after Bram Nossem and Hal Conklin to play Dr. Pauli, nemesis of Captain Video in the final years (1954-1955) of "Captain Video and His Video Rangers" (1949-1955) over the DuMont Television Network. His portrayal of Burt Johnson in "Arthur" (1981) earned praise from the New York Times as a "standout performance".
